Experience Through Their Eyes

Food is great, pizza is hearty and worth it. I just wish they would open 7 days a week like other places. They only operate from thursday-Sunday.

Great little pizza shop tucked away in South Chicago's rugged industrial neighborhood by the Skyway. Pizza, Italian Beef sandwich, and the garlic bread were all excellent. Decent prices and a friendly guy at the window too.
